Audio extraction from DVD
OK my sister is trying to extract an audio segment from a dvd. I am guessing you need a seperate program to extract like this because I havent seen an option like this in then normal media players. Now when I recently bought a Pioneer DL dvdrw drive, it came with this Ulead burning and media editing software. While I dont mind getting a seperate program, Ide prefer to be able to use this program and get to know it better. Anyone that could give me a hand?
Eh?
Anyway, to ignore anything but the first part of your question:
Like anything else, you're going to want a ripper (Smartripper works: http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video ... ripper.cfm)
I leave it to you to work out if what you want to do is legal in your jurisdiction, and if you're even allowed to download smartripper.
Once you have actual .VOB files, you can extract whatever you want from it, likely by using a tool like virtualdub(mod)
Pretty sure VDM will do segments if you only want part of the .wav (which will likely be encoded in ac3 format, assuming you want to do something else with the sound your post processor will need to grok ac3 OR you can transcode it out as uncompressed/PCM/whatever)
Of course, none of these tools have great documentation, but there's a ton of sites around that give step-by-step instructions on how to do almost anything with audio/video.
http://www.afterdawn.com might be a good place to start.
You'll probably want to forget Ulead; most bundled software is unsaleable otherwise it wouldn't be bundled. (not that high cost == good either; Premier is crap imho)
